Power system stabilizer (PSS)

PSS can be an option to provide standard IEEE 421.5-2005

2A / 2B / 2C function. The PSS provision is nowadays included

in most grid codes. The PSS is used for effective damping of

power oscillations caused by the physical power grid.

Software and tool for the UNITROL 1000 product portfolio:

All UNITROL 1000 products are based on the same target

software source code, therefore equal performance can be

seen with UNITROL 1010/20 as well as with UNITROL 1005.

The same simulation models can be used for the entire

UNITROL 1000 product family, making UNITROL 1000

products suitable for very demanding grid code applications.

ABB provides several levels of service for:

• Single channel systems

• Dual channel systems

• Mounting on a plate or in a cubicle

UNITROL 1000 provides compact and

reliable solutions. Various built-in control

software functions, robust mechanical

and electrical design enable a wide range of applications.

Systems include protection breaker and exciter field breaker.

They are fully tested in the ABB factory and AVR setting can be ordered preset.

Main features

• Compact and robust AVR for excitation current up to 20 A

• Separate communication and control processors

• Wide range of built-in control software functions

• Ethernet-based fieldbus interface

• Wide range of power input voltage, for AC and DC input

• Flexible and freely configurable measurements and inputs/outputs (I/Os)

Small and medium Excitation and Automatic Voltage

Regulation system (AVR)

The UNITROL® 6000 Medium excitation systems are engineered

to meet individual operational and environmental conditions as

well as international and local standards.

MEGADRIVE-LCI drives and static starters

For more than 35 years ABB’s MEGADRIVE-LCI drives and static

starters have proven their maximum reliability and availability in

a wide range of industries and applications. The MEGADRIVE

LCI is the preferred choice when it comes to reliable and

efficient operation of gas-fire power plants.

Flexible automatic synchronizers

For over 50 years, SYNCHROTACT® has protected power plant

generators and substations from the potentially destructive

effects of current surges caused by paralleling in non

synchronized conditions. SYNCHROTACT 6 is the sixth

generation of this well-proven and popular technology. Over

22.000 SYNCHROTACT units have been sold since its

introduction, more than any other synchronizer on the market.

Around the generator solutions

The excitation system and synchronizer have a powerful impact on the

dynamic performance and the availability of the generator. They guarantee

the quality of the generator voltage and reactive power and therefore the

quality of the delivered energy from the power plant.

Compact automatic voltage regulator systems

The UNITROL® 1000 product family covers a wide range of

applications for voltage regulation tasks of a synchronous/

generator or motor up to 80 MVA. It sets a new benchmark

for the global industry with respect to functionality, reliability

and connectivity.

Robot – Atomizer, Process Partners

Combining high performance atomizers with high per

formance robots makes for an impressive production tool.

The high performance of the robot opens the door to new

paint methods. The atomizer can move around on the

body surface without any escaping point, the robot can

keep or increase the speed when changing direction. The

high performance atomizer will withstand the high accel

eration forces generated by the robot.

Metabell, Metallic Effect With High TE

The Metabell function combines the high TE (Transfer

Efficiency) of a rotary atomizer with the metallic effect of

a conventional spray gun.  This new unique feature allows

for second coat base coat solvent borne application of me

tallic paint. It also opens the door to an innovative single

coat base coat concept. Achieving the high quality metal

lic finishing is accomplished by controlling the particle

colliding energy.  Shaping air ring, bell cup and application

parameters are the cornerstones of the Metabell application.
